Business Advice
New business acquisition
Are you looking to purchase a new business and are unsure if the price the seller is asking is fair? The current market provides a good opportunity for businesses with a strong free cash flow to expand through acquisition. It’s important to be aware of some of the value drivers of a business though, to ensure you’re paying what you deserve.
Some of the ‘value drivers’ of a business are:
- Future performance
- Financial leverage
- Financial return expectation
- Cash flow
- Deal structure
- Asset type
- Exit strategy
Centenary Tax Accountants can offer you sound, honest business advice and will carry out a business valuation to ensure your output rightfully corresponds with the value of the business. During this valuation, all of the above value drivers will be taken into consideration.
